A Devastating (((American))) Spy - Jonathan Pollard

In this episode, Jack delves into the enormous spying scandal of Jonathan Pollard in the 1980s. The key takeaways are:
1) This Jewish boy was so thoroughly indoctrinated in Israelism and Zionism as a child that him being an American citizen was an extreme domestic threat to America.
2) The amount of classified information that he transferred to Israel was gigantic.
3) Israel gave some of the stolen classified information to the USSR to obtain Israeli objectives.
4) After conviction, the amount of "American" Jews, Zionists, and Israelis (including Benjamin Netanyahu) who lobbied for his pardon was ridiculous.
5) He was given a hero's welcome by Benjamin Netanyahu when he was released and immigrated to Israel.
6) Trump pardoned Pollard's Israeli counterpart who was in the Israeli Air Force whom he funneled the information to in the last half-day of his first presidency.
